Description
Among Muslims today, the idea that the text of the Bible has been falsified has long been a part of
common belief. It is assumed that the Old as well as the New Testament originally were genuine
revelations from God, but that in the course of time they were altered and distorted by human beings.
Among Muslim non-theologians, there prevails only a vague knowledge about how these changes were
undertaken and to which Biblical statements they are supposed to apply. Muslim theologians, on the
other hand, attempt to corroborate the Islamic dogma of the falsification of the Biblical texts with
arguments from the historical-critical exegesis of the Bible as practiced by Christian theologians.
